From Stirling castle we had seen	A
The mazy Forth unravelled	B
Had trod the banks of Clyde and Tay	B
And with the Tweed had travelled	B
And when we came to Clovenford	B
Then said my winsome Marrow	C
Whate'er betide we'll turn aside	B
And see the Braes of Yarrow	C
	-
Let Yarrow folk 'frae' Selkirk town	D
Who have been buying selling	E
Go back to Yarrow 'tis their own	F
Each maiden to her dwelling	E
On Yarrow's banks let herons feed	B
Hares couch and rabbits burrow	C
But we will downward with the Tweed	B
Nor turn aside to Yarrow	C
	-
There's Galla Water Leader Haughs	G
Both lying right before us	G
And Dryborough where with chiming Tweed	B
The lintwhites sing in chorus	G
There's pleasant Tiviot dale a land	B
Made blithe with plough and harrow	C
Why throw away a needful day	B
To go in search of Yarrow	C
	-
What's Yarrow but a river bare	H
That glides the dark hills under	I
There are a thousand such elsewhere	H
As worthy of your wonder	I
Strange words they seemed of slight and scorn	J
My True love sighed for sorrow	C
And looked me in the face to think	K
I thus could speak of Yarrow	C
	-
Oh green said I are Yarrow's holms	G
And sweet is Yarrow flowing	E
Fair hangs the apple frae the rock	L
But we will leave it growing	E
O'er hilly path and open Strath	M
We'll wander Scotland thorough	C
But though so near we will not turn	N
Into the dale of Yarrow	C
	-
Let beeves and home bred kine partake	O
The sweets of Burn mill meadow	C
The swan on still St Mary's Lake	O
Float double swan and shadow	C
We will not see them will not go	C
To day nor yet to morrow	C
Enough if in our hearts we know	C
There's such a place as Yarrow	C
	-
Be Yarrow stream unseen unknown	F
It must or we shall rue it	B
We have a vision of our own	F
Ah why should we undo it	B
The treasured dreams of times long past	B
We'll keep them winsome Marrow	C
For when we're there although 'tis fair	H
'Twill be another Yarrow	C
	-
If Care with freezing years should come	P
And wandering seem but folly	Q
Should we be loth to stir from home	R
And yet be melancholy	Q
Should life be dull and spirits low	C
'Twill soothe us in our sorrow	C
That earth has something yet to show	C
The bonny holms of Yarrow	C
